The greek authorities prohibited the departure of a new “Gaza Flotilla” yesterday from greek ports. One ship however, with US flag, carrying 36 US activists, the “Audacity Of Hope”, ignored the prohibition and sailed whatsoever.
The ship was intercepted by greek Coast Guard while stil in greek waters and forced to go back.
The Flotilla however doesn’t abbandon their plans and will try to depart again.

Hamas today accused the greek goverment of “inhuman act, that goes against international rules which is the result of pressures by the zionist occupiers”. Hamas asked the European Council and the organizations for Human Rights to pressure the greek goverment to allow the departure of the flotilla.

Knowing the greek hardcore leftists that usually partecipate in these flotillas, stay tuned for the next episode, because i think they will try to make a run for international waters as soon as they can.
Israeli Apache helicopters have been for 10 days in Greece for joint exercize, so it would be an oxymoron doing common drills with Israel and at the same time having Greece as launching base for yet another Flotilla.
